Visalia Charter Independent Study has one mission: to offer students an innovative approach to academics that recognizes the unique and varied needs of each student. Our goal is to create a learning environment that takes into account individual needs by working at a pace that fosters academic success. As partners in this journey, parents, school staff, and the community come together to ensure that students are achieving their potential as they become learners in the 21st century. VCIS pledges to instill confidence, diligence, and self-worth for all students.
